 * Hi,
 * I really enjoy this plugin so far. I just have one quick question, how can modify
   the default error message “This field is required.”? I want to change it to other
   languages. Thanks.

 * Hello RD,
 * It’s good to hear, that you like the plugin.
    We are doing rapid developments,
   more features coming next week + a brief documentation. So stick to explore more
   from here.
 * Reg your query: how can modify the default error message “This field is required.”?
 * Open a form field, click on `Appearance` -> `Custom Validation Message`.

 * Hi RD,
 * Great to hear that you got the custom validation message to work in your forms.
 * If you have suggestions feel free to express. We are more than hearing.
 * Can you be first one to rate this plugin? I am sure your good rating would help
   us get the words.
 * In any case we will be pushing live validation support for remaining gravity 
   fields next week.
 * Cheers

 * Hi D.Jeet
 * I wouldn’t mind to be the first to rate, but I need more time to play around 
   with it in order to give a reliable rate.
 * After the update, I found some issue.
    First, real time validation stopped working
   on existing form, I have to recreate the form in order to bring everything back
   to work. Second, it may not be directly related to the plugin, it’s about the
   regex pattern. According to the examples come with the update, [\w]{3,5} means
   matching pattern is any characters between the length of 3 and 5 right? However,
   the upper limit 5 won’t work.
 * Please check.
 * Cheers

 * I really need to go back to version 1.0.4. Is there anyway I can do that?
 * In latest version, real time validation won’t work on any field below radio button;
   won’t work on any field that are not required.

 * Hi RD,
 * We have pushed a new version to fix the issue. Regarding RegEx patterns will 
   test and validate all of them in coming week.
 *  Please update to the latest version. If you still find trouble , please send
   me a mail with installation details at [support@wisetr.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-default-error-message/support@wisetr.com?output_format=md)
   and would be able to fix this.
 * Thank you for your patience.
 * Cheers
